What about the car drivers who see a gap in their mirror in the lane to their right and don;t bother doing a safety check to see if the gap is actually a gap and end up hitting a motorcyclist with the side of their car (has happened to me more than once and only just avoided on the motorway a few times)

We all have a right to use the road, try being considerate to others and perhaps you might get some back
In fairness, I think Arthur isn't moaning about motorcyclists, more those on bicycles. I've seen a lot of cyclists who seem to think they are the only person with any right to be on the road (or on the payment, ignoring the nice cycle lane, which winds me up as a pedestrian), and take stupid risks in the name of saving 30 seconds.
